Residential Case Study

Lucy Cavendish College, Cambridge

Project Background

Aris House is a brand-new four-story building accommodating 15 one and two bedroom apartments, a passenger lift to all floors, and allocated parking spaces. A specification of 163m² was authorised to this development located in a landmark position on the bustling Highcliffe High Street.

Cellecta’s insuBEAM was specified by ARC Architecture Ltd due to its weight saving and quick installation benefits. The system low emissivity foil faced insulation blocks are manufactured to the highest possible specification helping achieve the required U-Value. insuBEAM systems are fully supplied in plot specific quantities reducing waste and transport to site. The system is 42% less CO2 compared to a traditional beam and block system without the transport emissions being included.

CBS BUILD was awarded the contract to erect this new development.
